The Mouth of the Tyne Festival returns next week. With performances from the likes of The Wanted, McFly, The South and Heaven 17, there’s something for everyone – and lots more besides. Entertainment Editor Gordon Barr catches up with McFly and has a round-up of all that’s happening in the four-day event.

Dougie, who spent time in rehab following his split with Frankie from The Saturdays, says the band as a whole are in a good place at the moment.

“We don’t have many regrets. You need to learn from your mistakes and life in general.

“We’re all at a really awesome stage in our lives. There’s an amazing sense of humbleness and peace within the McFly camp. We are just doing things how we want to now. We’re not letting outside opinions control us or push us in a certain direction to do certain things.…keep reading.
